Re: GK3 Secure boot bios update
Hey everyone.
After flashing the modded BIOS and running Windows Integrity Check, Windows Update was showing that my PC couldn't run Windows 11. However, I've just cleaned up Windows Update cache files and now it is showing that my device is compatible with W11.
@simonelombardo, with that info I believe we can assume that Windows Update does not look up for the Secure Boot keys to allow W11 installation.

Re: GK3 Secure boot bios update
It's no surprise that after-sales support delivered a broken BIOS. They seem to have no idea how to handle this issue properly. This is the reply I just got from them: "You need to wait for Microsoft's push to upgrade the bios security boot."simonelombardo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 7:18 am That's the same way it asked for screenshot e-mails with its private @163.com e-mail. It says to write to the after sales support and the after sales support delivered a broken bios build to rroger, for instance (that I hope he resolved somehow).
I don't know if I should laugh or cry about how clueless that response is. I have mini-PC's from three different companies, and this is the only one that doesn't understand what's needed here. The support people from the other two manufacturers knew what I was talking about and sent the necessary BIOS update straight away.

Yes, it was the usual "Nick" that replied. I guess it's some small progress that, after such a long time, they could use (almost) the correct name, lol. Maybe we can hope that within another month or two, they can do some reading to learn how Secure Boot works.simonelombardo wrote: ↑Thu Nov 11, 2021 1:04 pm ...wow. And was it again this "Nick" alias? We can however cheer when they can spell Secure Boot correctly
